Min Ho Cho is a South Korean poker player who recently claimed his first major title at the Asian Poker Tour (APT) in Taipei, marking his breakout moment in the Asian live circuit.

Career Earnings & Biggest Results

According to The Hendon Mob, Min Ho Cho is a relatively new face on the international scene, with tournament cashes dating back to 2023. However, his career trajectory changed dramatically in November 2025.

He secured his biggest career victory at the APT Championship Taipei 2025 , winning the Micro Main Event Championship (Event #15) . Cho topped a massive field of 750 entries to capture the “Pewter Lion” trophy and a top prize of TWD 1,149,680 (~$35,815).

This single result more than tripled his previous lifetime earnings, which stood at approximately $13,500 prior to the win. His earlier results include final table appearances in Pot Limit Omaha events at WPT Prime Taiwan and USOP Da Nang, showcasing his versatility across variants.

Biography & Poker Background

Hailing from South Korea , Min Ho Cho has primarily focused his play within the Asian region, logging results in Vietnam, Taiwan, and South Korea.

His victory in Taipei was celebrated for his “gregarious” personality at the table. In post-win interviews, he described his path to the title as a “comeback,” having overcome a short stack at the final table to claim every chip in play. This win has firmly established him as a rising talent to watch in the Korean poker community.

Play Style & Strategy

Cho describes his winning strategy as disciplined and straightforward. Following his APT victory, he stated, “I just waited for good hands,” attributing his success to patience and capitalizing on opponents’ loose play. While primarily a No Limit Hold’em tournament player, his record indicates a strong proficiency in Pot Limit Omaha (PLO), where he has achieved multiple deep runs.
